Sahara Paragi

About Sahara Paragi

Sahara lives with her parents, one brother, and two sisters, Anita and Anjali, in a small mud hut in a remote village in Western India. This area is in a valley that experiences intense heat and drought seasons. The family uses wood as fuel to cook their meals as they cannot afford propane and don’t have access to electricity. The well the family uses is about one kilometer from their home which means gathering water each day is laborious and time-consuming.

Sahara comes from a Christian family; they faithfully attend church each Sunday. Her father is an unskilled laborer, which means he gets arduous jobs at construction sites or in agricultural fields. Her mother is a homemaker and even though she is very young, Sahara helps her mom with household chores. Sahara wants to become a teacher one day. She enjoys reading along with playing kho-kho. Her favorite foods are rice, chicken, chapatti, and mutton. Sahara needs your help and support to provide for school fees, uniform, books, school bag, and other needs.

Thank you for helping provide Hope, Dignity, and a Future to Sahara!
